The eMediaVA Ambassadors program will bring together a community of 10-15 Virginia PreK-12th grade educators to advise and promote eMediaVA content and programs. The Ambassadors will represent divisions from around Virginia, as well as varied content areas and grade levels. The Ambassador program creates opportunities for teachers to share strategies, create supporting activities for eMediaVA content, and leverage eMediaVA resources to elevate their own voices and ideas. PreK-12 educators in public or private schools in Virginia are encouraged to apply.

eMediaVA Ambassadors will be selected for their ability to integrate media and digital technology into their learning environments, inspiring students to use media and emerging technologies. Ambassadors should also utilize eMediaVA content on a regular basis and be familiar with eMediaVA features. Learn more about expectations, deliverables, and incentives below!
